@sam_bedford There was a fantastic calculator I used in the past to help me. I can't find it now but it takes into account your rent/bills (if working from home), the amount you'd take out of a 1099, and making sure you come out with your desired "salary" at the end of it.

@Codishaa Oh, ew.

I love when I get an auto-reply email telling me that the recipient is on vacation and not checking email.

Good for you for setting boundaries and having a healthy work/life balance! Talk to you when you get back!

They are really trying to make us think working remotely is a bad idea.

[Shannon McCoy (She/They) @DallasAdGrad]

My favorite bit at work is suggesting places to take work trips. If I suggest enough, one suggestion will stick. The last suggestion was Disney World or Land...so fingers crossed.

It's okay to be split on AI.
You can be concerned about its misuse and still see AI's potential for good.
You can be impressed by the technology and still be deeply troubled by its unintended consequences.
It's not all or nothing--tbh, it's probably better to have mixed feelings.

@Hopie_chan I can't guarantee anything but I've been known to crack an identity or two with phone numbers.

@KimScaravelli @realBrookNash I refuse to hustle. If I have to hustle, it's not meant for me (respectfully).

@eswayne There's still time, honestly.

"AI Is Considered the "Wild West" — Here's How Marketers Can Rein It In and Ensure Ethical Use"

I'm not against AI. I'm against unethical AI. I'm hoping I can use what little power I have in this world to help.

@SocialFactor Thank you!

I told my boss I needed to take the rest of the day and he basically said no. He follows me on Twitter. Tell him he's wrong.

What's the most important tool for a social media manager to have?

A good therapist.

@thepuffness Sounds like a day to call out. For reasons.
